(carolyn dawn johnson/tommy polk)

i´m through playin´ it safe
it´s time i laid it on the line
i wanna dance out on the edges
and get a little reckless in my mind
cause even a heart that´s locked away
can find a way to break
i won´t hide it now
i´m through makin´ that mistake

one fall, that´s all
i don´t know who it´s gonna be
out there, somewhere
someone is waitin´ just for me
no pain, no gain
there´s not a chance that i won´t take
´cause love is always worth the ache

love´s like a vegas wheel
you´ve got to spin to win the prize
(you know you got to, you know you got to,
you know you got to spin to win the prize)
but it´s a gamble worth the takin´
you say a prayer and then you roll the dice
(you say a prayer and, you say a prayer
and, you say a prayer and, and you roll the dice)
well they say it´s hard to beat the odds
i say it´s harder not to try
i will play the game
do what it takes to get it right

one fall, that´s all
i don´t know who it´s gonna be
out there, somewhere
someone is waiting just for me
no pain, no gain
there´s not a chance that i won´t take
´cause love is always worth the ache

well they say it´s better to have loved and lost
then to have never loved at all
ah yeah yeah yeah

one fall, that´s all
i don´t know who it´s gonna be
out there, somewhere
someone is waiting just for me
no pain, no gain
there´s not a chance that i won´t take
´cause love is always worth the ache

(it´s always, it´s always, it´s always)
yeah it´s always worth the ache
(it´s always, it´s always, it´s always)
oh love is worth the ache
(it´s always, it´s always, it´s always)
yeah love is always worth the ache
(it´s always, it´s always, it´s always)
yeah
you know there´s not a chance i won´t take
´cause love is always worth the ache
